Throughout the journey, He Mingâs heart was in turmoil. He had just called Xiaomeng, but her phone was off.
Thinking of this, he became even more anxious.
He drove all the way non-stop and soon arrived at Xiaomengâs house.
As it was still early, he was worried that Xiaomeng might not even reach home yet.
Therefore, he parked the car by the roadside, thinking of going up later.
If he went up so rashly, Xiaomengâs parents would definitely have an unfavorable impression of him if they found out about the matter. Therefore, he decided to wait for Xiaomeng to get home before going up.
Although He Ming was very anxious, he knew now wasnât the time to rush. He waited patiently.
Half an hour later, he saw Ye Xiaomeng appear at the door with a travel bag. He was excited.
Xiaomeng indeed came home. She didnât lie to him, so he felt more at ease.
He followed closely behind Xiaomeng. Not long after Xiaomeng entered, he rang the doorbell.
Xiaomeng was a little puzzled. She had just called her mother and was told she was buying groceries at the market while her father had gone for his morning exercise. Were they back so soon?
âDad, Mom, youâre back?â Xiaomeng said with a smile as she opened the door.
However, the moment she opened the door, she saw He Ming standing outside. He looked so worn, and his shirt was crumpled. Without saying a word, she immediately wanted to close the door.
He Mingâs reaction was swift. Afraid that Xiaomeng would close the door, he used his body to block the door and quickly grabbed her hand. âMengmeng, listen to me. I wonât do anything you donât like me doing in the future. If you donât like me interacting with Yao Ning in the future, Iâll take a detour whenever I see her. I really treat her as an ordinary classmate. Iâll also explain it to my mother clearly so that she wonât mess up our relationship.â
Ye Xiaomeng felt annoyed, disappointed, and frustrated. Why did all men like to do this? They would apologize when making a mistake. After asking for forgiveness, he would do it again the next time.
âAlright, donât tell me this. I just want to be alone now. Anyway, weâre not married. If you have any choice, itâs not too late. You donât have to care about the child. I can raise myself. Iâm not a worm in your stomach. I donât know your thoughts, but I have my bottom line. My man canât fool around with other women. If you cross this line, we can divorce even if we are married.â
Ye Xiaomeng felt the need to make things clear to him because she was really sick of this kind of thing happening one after another.
âMengmeng, are you prejudiced against me?â He Ming was helpless. He felt very uncomfortable after hearing her words. Every word she said was like a needle stabbing him.
âI clearly didnât do anything, and I still love you so much. Why do you have to say such heart-wrenching words?â He Ming sounded very sad.
Ye Xiaomeng lowered her head and looked at the floor. âMaybe⦠Time can prove everything, and it can also prove each otherâs loyalty. Go back and let us calm down. That way, you can take the opportunity to think about whether weâre suitable for each other.â Ye Xiaomeng gave him a complicated look, then pulled her hand back and slowly closed the door.
He Ming squatted in front of Xiaomengâs house without moving for a long time. His heart felt like being strangled by a rope, and it was in great pain.
He Ming could feel that Xiaomeng was very firm this time. She was usually easy-going, but it was irreversible once she set her mind on something. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He Ming had thought that everything would be fine after his explanation. He didnât expect Xiaomeng to have such a big reaction.
He suddenly felt tremendously flustered because he wasnât sure if Xiaomeng would forgive him this time.
